2020: or My Name is Jesus Christ and I'm Running for President (or How Beelzebub Turned out to be the Inimitable Donald Trump.)
by Timothy CooperPublish: Jul 24, 2014Literary Fiction Book Overview
A divine comedy about the redemption of America.
Timothy Cooper’s novel, “2020 or My Name is Jesus Christ and I’m Running for President” paints a hilariously envisioned America caught up in presidential politics. In actuality, it tells the prophetic story of the rise of Donald Trump.
Here Jesus returns to Earth, only to find himself pitted against his satanic stepbrother, Beelzebub, in a contest for the presidency, for the very soul of America.
Who will win? Well, God only knows. But it's guaranteed to be unlike any political read you’ve ever had before. Ever.
Here Goodreads readers weigh in on 2020:
"I absolutely loved this book! It was hilarious and at the same time non-heretical. The author did an amazing job portraying a Christ that is non-political in a time when we need a Christ to be involved in our political process.
"Jesus is not a Republican. Jesus is not a Democrat. Jesus is ... Jesus, and he's got MY vote!" -- Pat Gent, Goodreads
Gary Patton from Goodreads also says of 2020, “The thesis of this book will not be liked by Christians. But, Jesus' actual Followers will love it and be empowered by it!”
